District Scout Shop – can you help?

Published11 September 2018

Could you be part of the Scout Shop team?

For the last 13 years, Hemel Hempstead District Scouts have operated a Scout Shop, supplying young people with uniform and leaders with badges, resources, certificates and much more. The Scout Shop also raises around £2,500 per year to reduce the cost of Scouting – keeping activity costs for young people down and ensuring leaders have everything they need to run successful groups!

Two members of the existing team have decided to step down due to other commitments so we are looking for new members to join the team.

What’s the commitment?

Team members are rotated on a four-weekly basis, so we’re asking you to help one evening per month, usually 11 times over the course of a year.

These roles are great ways to support Scouting for parents unable to help with weekly sessions.

Do I need any specific experience?

Absolutely not… it’s just a case of offering customers the items they’re looking for, checking the order form and taking payment.

I’m interested… what next?

Please respond to this with your telephone number and you will be contacted to chat through what’s involved in more detail before you decide whether it’s for you or not.

Thanks

Russ
